arrow_circle_up
Sliding through via
Charing Cross for two podumes
And to Leytonstone
Is this a spoon which
I see before me? The hand
le toward my hand?
Come, let me clutch thee
I have thee not, and yet I
See thee still, at Bank
Not me, squire! You Err.
Your bifocals need changing
For I'm in Stanmore
and have been for Lo! These many days and then some, Alone and Adrift
I notice Chalky
Has played the famous "my arse."
This means Farringdon
Escalating the
Violence, and invoking
Uh-oh!: Upton Park.
Fresh from the weekend
I check my favourite game
And move to Archway
Stale after the pub
I check my favourite game
And then return here.
(Oops, a bit too loud)
After a long shift
I am pleased to see my home
MC on the screen
(and miss the point entirely)
Dropped in yonks ago...
Harrow and Wealdstone!
I say, and then leave.
When I am sober
I can count my syllables
before I submit.
Release those podumes!
[Standard mis-counting forfeit]
Now I'll play Oval
A shot in the dark
And a really sinister
Podume found at Bank.
Taking heed of the
Sinister Podume alert
Hiding at New Cross
Poisoned litter to
Scatter at Wimbledon should
Bag a few Wombles
What have the Wombles
Done to you? Moving to build
A refuge at Bank
All those Christmas songs!
You should mind your own beeswax
Meanwhile, Leicester Square
But they are so cute
Didn't know they made beeswax :)
Anyway, Uxbridge
Only heard one song.
What are the other ones then?
*Hops off at Temple*
The Womble songbook
Is easily found.Google!
Fleeing to Mile End
The commentator
speaking in hushed tones tells us
the endgame is near.
Speaking in hushed tones
I tell the players that it's
A game of two halves.
I'll have to *f*a*r*k*l*e*
While I shoot myself in the
HTML head.
Simons continues
To comment without playing
I move back to Bank
Making a late tilt
At undeserved glory
I essay Bond Street!
(that's "un-de-ser-ved", BTW)
Reasserting my
Authority (podumes-wise)
One more at Poplar.
Perhaps I should frume
But even now I think that's
unduly forward.
once again I see that
the haiku game is living
I say: "right foot Bank"
and spontaneously forget how to count...
Counting carefully
Moving off to Mill Hill East
Scheming a dark scheme
Is everyone lulled?
I don't really need to know,
I'm just curious.
Exploding onto
The scene and pushing onward
To Fulham Broadway
Looking around I
see that the game has moved
to Mill Hill, the Hale
The time is now right
For me to enter the game;
Mornington Crescent.
I call thee offside!
However, I'm not, and:
Mornington Crescent!!
*shouts, screams, generally goes wild for Tuj*
I did enjoy that
But all good things must come to
